jack conte is extremely underrated

Can't say I'm the only one who found this song after watching that Slay The Princess animatic right?

For being made 14 years ago this is unrealistically good

I love the feeling this song gives off. It's like a quiet swirling vortex. It's not exactly sinister or depressing, but it has the dragging feeling of being sucked in. I guess it's akin to watching something horrible happening and not being able to look away but instead it's hearing a story we know isn't going to end well? It's hard to explain but good job. I'm defiantly going to check out some of your other stuff.

it's so interesting how he uses a pillow to make it sound like that. this is why I love him! so creative...

I come back to this every now and then Funny to think that this man is literally the CEO of Patreon now lmao

this sounds like something that would be in a movie like Coraline

Good shit right here

This is one of those songs that, even though I love it, I would NEVER have my friends or family listen to it because they would probably think I'm a psychopath.

this song makes me feel so empty inside and i love it 10/10

This song makes you feel completely fucking empty.

I've only listened to Jack Conte for a little bit, he is so different but in a really good way. I find myself always coming back to Kitchen fork or Bloody nose, though I knew he was different when I saw the look in his eyes when he talked about going on tour. He just had this shine, passion, in his eyes. He was obviously very excited about this and the shine in his eyes told me that he was just different in many ways from other singers now.

learned this song existed from an AMV about "slay the princess" and it fits so well with the uncomfortable feeling of that game...

(LYRICS) Wake from a dream, Where I was stuck losing my teeth. Lucky for me it was all fake Or not what it seemed. Where, oh where will we go next, Haunted pillow beneath my head? Where does it go? Where does it go? Where does it go? Pick out her heart With a kitchen fork, Pin down her arms. Wake from the scar, Still feeling sick. Where did it get started? Where, oh where did this come from? Oh my God, my head's a gun. I let myself go. I let myself go. I let myself go. Whose that? Can you, reach in time? Takes me, all these, Wretched hours? Once I flew above the cars, And the wind blew gratitude through my heart. I let it all go. I let it all go. I let it all go. Save us from our own two heads. Can I keep just one and ditch the rest?

Whoa, did anyone else hear the faint laughter of children when he sang "Wake from the scar, still feeling sick"? I suggest wearing headphones and turning up the volume if you want to hear it.

sorry! here you go: "who's this kid who wakes each night, takes me on these wretched rides?"

sweet! you noticed the new snare!!! i super love it. it's woofy. anyway, thanks! glad you dig it.

oh my gosh that sounds so good. it's on my shopping list.

this genuinely is like a capture of everything in my life, this song feels like if my very soul was turned into a song, thank you jack conte, I know you won’t see this but I can dream.

You're on a path in the woods.

As someone who suffers from impulsivity and is a high functioning autist, i must say, this song truly just my mind in a nutshell, suffering from mixing up reality with the figments of my mind, always fearing losing control of oneself to violence, and over all questioning ones will to exist, i must say, this is a masterpiece

Found you from a Game art animation AMV of kill the princess and I am SO happy to have found you through their proper credit :D

bless this man and his voice

His voice has this haunting beauty in it. not to mention the creative lyrics AND beats. The stuff freaks you out while you get this sense of awe thats impossible to ingore...I can't help but get addicted to this stuff!

I'm gonna say it, Jack Conte walked so Jack Stauber could run

i have a theory that this song is about someone who experiences such pain with things in the past and cant seem to forget them hence "where do we go next", they have a mental illness maybe hence "save us from our own two heads" and they have nightmares because of the illness hence "wake from a dream where i was stuck losing my teeth" and "haunted pillow beneath my head" and they know its all in their head but still cant shake the fact hence "lucky for me it was all fake or not what it seemed". the mental illness might effect their emotional state because of "pick out her heart with a kitchen fork", "wake from the scar still feeling sick", and "once i flew above the clouds".they obviously want to be saved because of "save us from our own two heads, can i keep just one and ditch the rest" here's how i think the story goes **ahem** some tragic accident happened in the past and this person got a mental illness from it. the mental illness effects their emotional state and their sleep. they have constant nightmares and switches from one emotion to another in a blink of an eye. they know its effecting them so they search for help, wanting to break free from the chains of the illness. if you made it to the end of this comment well....thanks and congrats. tell me how u feel about my theory (also im not saying its fact i just thought of it and said "oH tHiS mIgHt bE cOoL")

I've seen a lot of stuff lately that has reached me to my nightmares and I like to listen to this song and bloody nose before bed. it fuels my creativity and makes me vomit at 3 am. I love it

Idk if it's just because I'm an extremely emotional person, but I kinda teared up at the fact that so much raw talent is so unrecognized... I mean, this song is so amazing.... Allot better then most of the songs that are considered "amazing" these days... When I first heard this song (ok I'm not gonna lie, it was the UNDERTALE amv) I thought this was going to be some really cool new band to fall in love with... The fact that this man is literally a youtuber with less then a million followers and creating this all in his home amazed me, like, I mean that's just... Wow! You're so damn talented, and I hope you become popular and join a band, or go solo, (whatever you prefer) because you deserve it.

His voice reminds me of that singer that sung Dear Rabbit.

As a violinist I absolutely love the incorporation of violin in this song. It's so hauntingly beautiful and the part in the middle of the song where the all the parts play in unison is chilling, as well as the note the song ends on. There are so many elements in this song that pull it together, like the glockenspiel part. This song is a lovely example of usually classical instruments being used in a non classical context and it works perfectly. I hope to be able to pick out a few parts of this song to learn.

HARDCORE EARGASM Fuck it Conte, you did it again

Wtf how come no one told me this guy is the CEO of patreon?!

Damn... 2009... Damn... 9 years later... Damn... You're still amazing

can’t believe i’ve been listening to this for almost 10 years

Ten years! KZfaq!! I love this song! It makes you feel dizzy, like you are in a tornado, you're fully out of control and you're getting spinned around in a swirl of nightmares, dying realitys and madness. So good!

Jack conte is the clay animation of music. Each song is an art piece and a story and gives you a feeling only available in this art form of Jack Conte.

It appears that this song has been getting recent attention, despite it's upload date. Pity that more of your brilliant songs aren't resurfacing.

This era of Jack, the video song, the intensity, the creative magic, is the absolute best. I can't believe 14 years have gone by so quickly. These creations still give me chills. 🏆⭐

a little over 10 years this has been around. once every few years, i'm reminded of it, and i listen to it, and then forget about it again, and it never ceases to unsettle me in a way that nothing else can. Here's to 10 more years of the cycle!

YALL THIS GUY IS THE CEO OF PATREON NOW-

I honestly love this song! It's amazing and I can't stop listening to it! Even though it's 7 years old, it's astonishing and I absolutely LOVE IT!

Probably not intended, but this song perfectly encapsulates the feeling of sudden bursts of life long trauma. all of those times where pain went in one way and not out the other, making an unstoppable escape from your body, from your mind, from your heart. After years and years of trauma and sheduled normality, you suddenly lose sight of your average day to day life and become blinded by all of the emotions youve been forced to keep in your heart, all the pain youve been force fed all your life. Its horrible because when it eventually ends, it leaves an after taste of no bitterness, no anger, no sadness and no fear, just, despair. Despair at what youve become. Despair at the damage that will never go away. Despair at the non-negotiatable reality that has been seared into the deepest part of your heart, a scar with an uncontrolable pulse. Your childhood asks you to stop thinking about it, so you sniff up your tears, and wait for the next time it happens, looping the cycle, and sealing your heart back fully in its birthplace, just to get a few more hours of your day over with. So yeah um anyways i would say its a good song-

One of my favourite songs of all time, it's such an eerie, chaotic sense of losing control, perfectly emulated by the instrumentation and vocals. Such an underrated song from such an underrated artist

To imagine if he hadn't come up on youtube, and showed us his ideas, we wouldn't have had patreon.

Learning that this guy is the CEO of Patreon after all this time was smack on the back of the head, that's for sure

oh we will, we will. it won't sound exactly like the recording, but it'll be coooooool!

this song was wayyy ahead of its time.

I remember listening to this song from a undertale speedpaint and it's all thx to a AMV of Slay the princess that I found that song.

this song is beautiful. i love the piano and violin, they make the song more magical. i especially like the muffled part. i like to listen to this song while drawing, it gives me inspiration. i get lots of feels while listening to this song.

This song does not feel 14.

God this is a masterpiece, it just works so well. Great voice, great combination of the instruments, creepy vague lyrics, it's just awesome. Will be remembering this song forever.

This song fits slay the princess so perfectly

Jacks songs feel like the definition of insanity Very beautiful He’s absolutely shredding that acoustic guitar

thanks! i just bought it, and i'm officially in love. i've been looking for a deep bassy fat snare sound, and i found it in this tiny little drum shop in LA. it's an old gretsch.

Commenting now 2021 but have had this song on my playlist since the day this video was posted and it’s still one of my favorite songs. Thank you jack

Anyone slay any princesses lately?

coming here after spotify wrapped told me this was my top song of the year with 236 plays 😅

I don't care if this song was made ten years ago, I love this song.

i had no idea that the guy behind this song was so goofy! that's so fun!! i hope he got lot's of that juice he mentioned

What... what is happening. This is certainly not what I anticipated, clicking on a 15 year old KZfaq song called "Kitchen Fork". But screw it, this is definitely better than I anticipated.

yep still holds up after 12years

I think the part at 2:16 is a really creative idea to change your own voice by talking through a pillow/blanket. Props to that guy. 👏

i love this song since a I was little child!!! mood and instrumentals and words are outstanding !!!!!

I don't know what the song's style is, but it make me depressed also make me feel good in the same time I love it.

The lyrics at 1:58 are: Who's that kid who wakes each night Takes me on these wretched rides

I never would have guessed this was one half of Pomplamoose. Hot damn.

can't believe i've been a fan of this guy for a pinch longer than four years now. thats like 1/4 of my life. I love you and your work Jack! I am overly aware that you will never, EVER see this. But i'm glad you have found your life as the CEO of Patreon! it's amazing!

good shit goOd ShiT there's some goOD SHIT GOOD SHIT RIGHT HERE

being able to see everything he did to make up the song just makes it so much more amazing, it really makes you notice the little quiet aspects that you wouldn't be able to pick up if you just listened to it

dude, i usually don't get involved in these discussions, but that was freakin hilarious. you had me for a second. amazing.

i am killed ascended and resurrected and then ripped apart and then sewed back together and then poisoned buried and brought back to life and hugged so tight like it's the last hug i get before being sat down onto electric chair and then i fall down the highest cliff just to drown in the deepest sea and in the end it carries me to the shore gently thank you for this experience

Man cant believe this guy is the creator of patreon

Damn. I just found your stuff recently, and I was so sad to see how long ago it was posted, and how inactive the channel has been since then. This is an amazing piece of work. Thank you for making it and sharing it with the world.

Oh my god, just the way his voice is, and the gestures when he sings, and the visuals, it’s just... AAAAAAAHHH!!! This song is AMAZING!!!

Criminally underrated

This is how my brain feels woth ocd, especially the two heads part. Thank you for making this beautiful song.

thank you spotify weekly

Good job on youtube for reccomending me something I like. Captures the magic of Tally Hall I so desperately needed more of in my life

Damn this is 10 years old... ITS SO AMAZING THO

I really have to give a ton of congratulations to that person who made the kitchen Fork AMV for slay the princess for pointing me to this amazing 15 year old video, and to you the creator. I never would have found this amazing song when i was 25. You rock man! Thank god people can make projects on KZfaq to link older creators you might have missed.

WHY IS THIS SO UNDERRATED???!!?!?!? AAAA I STILL LOVE IT 9 YEARS LATER XD

Came here because I love Jacks music :3

this is fucking fantastic, still. fuck the girl who told me I had bad music taste b/c of this song! My music taste is fantastic!

Why are there no other songs like this? Am I not looking hard enough?

I feel like I'm about to fall into an obsession with this guy now that I've heard this one amazing song.

The ending just shows the age, god this song is so good and so ahead of it’s time

(the most haunting song you've heard in your life) We're going on tour wahoo :D

I never forgot you Jack. I hope I made you proud. Thank you for your "Inspiration."

I know this song is 11 years old, but whenever I listen to it, I feel as if I’m not afraid of death anymore. At any normal occasion, I would be terrified and go into a panic just thinking about the fact that I’m going to die one day and turn to nothing, but when I’m listening to this song, I get a feeling as if I’m holding hands with death. Obviously I don’t want to die, but the feeling is still there.

I don't think you will ever know how much I have appreciated this being on my playlist

Ah yes. The only popular Jack Conte song. Y'all know he's the founder of our lord and savior Patreon yeh? Check out his other stuff, I'd suggest Lonely Ghost or Impressions.

This song is honestly so good, I keep coming back to listen to it on loop every couple of months, honestly surprised it's going to be 15 years old in a couple of days!

I don't care if it's December Imma still listen to dark music

2015 and this is still a good song you sir did a good job

For anyone wondering if he's alive, like I was, He just updated his favorites list today!

i wanna scream this songs at the top of my lungs all hours of the day oh my god

jheeze this really shows the diversity of conte's music and style

I wish that this song was on Amazon Music so that I could listen to it all the time. I am thoroughly obsessed.

Vibing while my heart is picked out with a kitchen fork

hell yes, homie!! i love the tube. proud to be on youtube, aren't you?!
